In SITAWI’s platform, we know who is the entrepreneur, what kind of project is being undertaken, where the money is being used. This is what I like: to know who is getting my money and that it will be used in something worth it, something we believe in.

If they hadn’t thought of future generations 20 years ago, in my genereation, I would not know what a turtle is, I would not know what is seeing a baby turtle walking in the beach. So, to us, it is a fascinating thing.
